Crochet with Me… Winter 2015 CAL!!! Week 2

January 25, 2015 By Beatrice Ryan Designs 6 Comments

So many great Granny’s Circle In Square’s!!! Week 1 had 5 squares to complete and now we are ready for week 2!!! I loved seeing all the great pictures on Wednesday night over on Facebook during our Show and Tell!! So are you ready to finish 1 Strip Segment ??

Here is what we will look like at the end of Week 2…

My first afghan is done in worsted weight yarn, using traditional color changing… Loops and Threads Impeccable!

My second afghan is done in self-striping yarn… Red Heart Unforgettable!!

Week 2 Assignment and Instructions..

This week you will be making 4 more Granny’s Circle in Square to complete one full strip of 9 squares, We will be blocking the squares to get the right shape and then joining them to complete one full strip segment!! So let’s get started!!

*If you are just starting you can refer to the Crochet with Me tab at the top of the page for all the week’s instructions!

Week 2~ Make 4 Granny’s Circle in Square… If you need the instructions… Click Here!!

Next… Let’s block our squares to make them even in size and shape!! If you haven’t blocked a crochet piece before… There are 2 methods you can use, Wet Blocking and Steam Blocking, I usually use the Steam Method, but you have to be very careful not to damage your yarn! For video tutorials on both techniques we will head over to my good friend Tamara’s site,,, MOOGLY! She has made a great tutorial for both!!

For Steam Blocking… Click Here! For Wet Blocking… Click Here!

Ok,, Now it is time to join your blocks into one long strip segment! There are more than one method for this too!!

*Make sure you put wrong sides together when sewing so they all come out looking the same!

1. You can whip stitch the edges together using a yarn needle and yarn, you will do this for each block until all 9 are joined.

2. You can crochet them together with a single crochet (this is the method I used). I crochet in one loop from each square, the closest one facing me.

Or you can join with some fancy techniques… Again, You can head over to Moogly to see 12 ways to join… Click Here!

Just make sure you use the same joining technique throughout the entire project..

That’s it… You have completed Week 2!! Simple enough right?? Next week we will be starting our next strip segment… And… It is not squares so don’t sneak ahead and make more quite yet!!

Don’t forget to join me Wednesday night on Facebook for The “Show and Tell” Post at 6pm EST… and you can also post to our Pinterest Board, Ravelry page and those of you who follow me on Instagram got a Sneak Peak last night of this week!!!

Happy Crocheting!!
